Philippians 2:24

But you know the proof of him, that, as a child serves a father, so he served with me in furtherance of the Good News.

Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it will go with me.

But I counted it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, fellow soldier, and your apostle and servant of my need;

since he longed for you all, and was very troubled, because you had heard that he was sick.
